Eastern High School PLTW
The Problem
There are currently engineering/engineering technology jobs available in the U.S. without trained people to fill them.
1,300,000
Exposure to Real Engineering
The PLTW classes are modeled after
introductory engineering courses taught at
the university level.
Students gain first hand experience to find
out what engineering is all about.
Who should take PLTW courses?
The Student who is:
In the top 80% of his/her class.
Good in mathematics and science.
Interested in being an engineer or technologist.
Good in art and design.
Interested in computers.
Student who learns best by “doing.”
The Student who is:
Willing to work hard!!!
PLTW Courses
PLTW at Eastern Jr/Sr. High School

Create detailed annotated drawings…
The Chess Board
Digital Electronics
This is a course in applied logic that encompasses the application of electronic circuits and devices.
Test Equipment
Electrical Components
Designing Circuits
Computer simulation software is used to design and test digital circuitry prior to the actual construction of circuits and devices
Constructing Circuits
After designing circuits, students build and test their circuits in lab.
